Appendix C - GPL Code Statement
1. Source Code.
The “source code” for a work means the preferred form of the work for making modifications to it. “Object code” means any
non-source form of a work.
A “Standard Interface” means an interface that either is an official standard defined by a recognized standards body, or, in the
case of interfaces specified for a particular programming language, one that is widely used among developers working in that
language.
The “System Libraries” of an executable work include anything, other than the work as a whole, that (a) is included in the
normal form of packaging a Major Component, but which is not part of that Major Component, and (b) serves only to enable
use of the work with that Major Component, or to implement a Standard Interface for which an implementation is available
to the public in source code form. A “Major Component”, in this context, means a major essential component (kernel, window
system, and so on) of the specific operating system (if any) on which the executable work runs, or a compiler used to produce
the work, or an object code interpreter used to run it.
The “Corresponding Source” for a work in object code form means all the source code needed to generate, install, and (for
an executable work) run the object code and to modify the work, including scripts to control those activities. However, it
does not include the work’s System Libraries, or general-purpose tools or generally available free programs which are used
unmodified in performing those activities but which are not part of the work. For example, Corresponding Source includes
interface definition files associated with source files for the work, and the source code for shared libraries and dynamically
linked subprograms that the work is specifically designed to require, such as by intimate data communication or control flow
between those subprograms and other parts of the work.
The Corresponding Source need not include anything that users can regenerate automatically from other parts of the
Corresponding Source.
The Corresponding Source for a work in source code form is that same work.
